Standard Specification for Phosphor Bronze Plate, Sheet, Strip, and Rolled Bar
11-11-2014
28-10-1999
1.1 This specification covers copper-tin alloy (phosphor bronze), copper-tin-lead alloy (leaded phosphor bronze), and copper-tin-lead-zinc alloy (bearing bronze), plate, sheet, strip, and rolled bar. The phosphor bronzes are commonly used for deep drawing into bellows, stamping and forming into spring devices and into terminals and connectors for electrical apparatus, because they combine high strength with high elongation. The leaded phosphor bronzes are used where strength, corrosion resistance, and machinability are required. The bearing bronze is used in bushings, bearings, and load bearing thrust washers. The following alloys are covered:

Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.
